I've used them, in a large rotation with lots of other diaper styles and brands. They're good. If you plan on using them with cloth inserts they're not much different then other all in two diapers. I think the disposable inserts are silly for everyday use, you might as well just use regular disposable diapers.

We tried g diapers with our son, and found that even through proper care, they didn't hold up well and they leaked from the beginning. If you're planning on breastfeeding, they DO NOT hold up to the runny bf poop in the beginning. In the end, we gave up on them.

I also had trouble with them. They didn't work out for us. Maybe part of it is what upsydayz said - breastfeeding poop is crazy runny! My son has always been a light/terrible sleeper, so it always woke him up and interfered with nap time. He also hated to get his diapers changed, so it was horrible. We gave up and had to use disposables. We're going to a class to try to figure out a cloth solution for this baby!!

We tried them and gave up by the time my DD was 1 month old. First problem we had is that every poopy diaper leaked (maybe it's the bf baby poo like others said) and every diaper change was a poopy diaper, that got old really fast. The second major problem we had, which may have happened with any cloth, was that my DD got huge sores on her bum (the size of quarters, which is big on a newborn) we kept switching to disposables to make the sores go away and then we'd try the cloth again and the sores would come back, we couldn't use wipes either we had to wash her bum in the sink with each change. Our pedi said that some babies can't handle cloth just like some babies can't handle disposables, so we finally dropped the gDiapers.

Skip the g diapers check out grovia! I love love love them they have gusseted inserts even the disposable insert has gussets and a sticky tab to hold in place. I just tried them on my 24 month old son and not one leak though a very long nap. I havent had newbon poop in them since we are just now switching to grovia from bumgenious brand diapers but I can see these being bullet proof if they can handle a 35lb chunky 2 yr old.

We had the problem with sores after a year in cloth diapers.Turned out it was the detergent and buildup. I stripped the diapers soaking over night washing on the hottest cycle with bleach, then a cycle with dawn dish detergent, then a cycle with vinegar, folowed by 2-3 rinses until there was no suds at all in the water. Its almost a must to have a top loader if you cloth diaper.

I only had a couple g diapers and hated them. First they never seemed to stay velcroed and the lining just peeled away rendering them useless. They leaked every time after one little pee. They seemed like a good idea at first but I think they're pointless now. Go one way or the other- either cloth diaper insert with more durable cover or complete disposable.

Quick question, with the poo do you rinse off first then wash? Or just was as is? I will be breast feeding and know the runny consistency is glamourous lol but wasn't sure how to start using cloth diapers...
